        This year, the NCPHWR has continued to focus on collaboration, bringing together
        academia, the NHS, the third sector, policymakers and practitioners to encourage
        the application of bids for new, exciting research.                                                                        Conclusion                                                                             17

        We continue to achieve significant external funding through the support of the
        research infrastructure in Wales. More than ever, we are communicating to a wider
        audience through our increased social media activity and our continued success in
        seeing our research published. Finally, we have continued to engage and involve the
        public to increase the impact of our research.
